- Where to publish survey results
- Link excel spreadsheet to the wiki/website
- Scott will check to see if we can deposit to UW IR
- We should mint a public PID (ARK, Handle, DOI, etc.)
- What should be included in the final report?
- Summary of this morning's discussion topics
- Clear indication of what is needed for a follow-on grant (docs, tooling, etc.)
- Recommendations, prioritized tasks to present to Fedora governance leading to concrete actions
- Not a SWOT analysis, but a statement of the risks involved in not migrating away from Fedora 3.x
- Clarity about what DuraSpace/Lyrasis should do vs. what other stakeholders should do
- This will help with communication with other groups/service providers
- Prioritization based on need and impact
- Description of where this fits in with other DuraSpace/Lyrasis priorities (e.g. OCFL)
- Consider SOAR (Strengths, Opportunities, Aspirations, Risks) analysis
- Confirmation that people in the community aren't alone, DuraSpace/Lyrasis is on top of things
- Beyond just migrating from 3.x to 6.x, thinking about future versions of Fedora
- Should we check in like this every few years?
- What problems are you facing, what do you need help with
- This helps us get beyond our current governance structure, which heavily favours institutions that are able to pay membership fees
- The results of this effort could be useful to other communities as well (e.g. DSpace)
- The process could be useful to share as well
- Dissemination
- Presentation accepted at OR
- The group will put a proposal into DLF
- Islandoracon, Samvera Connect, CNI
- Organize a webinar in the Fall
- Publish a paper in an open access journal (e.g. Code4Lib)
- Include in workshops and camps
- Couple messaging with release of Fedora 6
- Next Steps in the grant process
- This is a planning grant, implementation grants typically follow
- IMLS will put out a call for proposals in September
- Support for a second phase would probably fall into 2020
- What could a follow-on grant help fund in this timeline?
- Hard to know before we see the results
- Identify priorities in the report without assuming any grant funding, but indicate where funding would help accelerate these efforts
- We want to be working on migration tooling as soon as possible
- The grant could help fund migration guide, site visits, training
- Probably target $150K
- Revisit this once we have the results of the survey on the May 13 meeting
